With four very different villages and churches we are looking for someone who will join us in bringing faith and discipleship to our growing rural community.

We are looking for a Rector who will:

• Work with us to develop our mission and discipleship across our communities
• Help us to reach out to those moving into our villages with young families
• Be flexible and open to a diverse range of worship
• Be a part of our villages and join in with village life

We can offer:

• A strong and faithful foundation ready to take the next step together with you in faith
• A team of two LLMs, a part-time, self-employed Benefice Administrator and a Safeguarding Officer
• A Benefice Office
• A four-bedroom Rectory
• All this and beautiful and picturesque countryside within reach of Oxford, Banbury and with nearby rail-links to London and Birmingham

For an informal discussion, please contact Associate Archdeacon Jane Haslam at [email protected]
